  • In this book The New Sell & Sell Short by Dr Alexander Elder, we look at the signs to look for when deciding on whether to sell a stock position.
    Trade management is paramount for a stock trader looking to make this a profession.
    Dr Elder author of Trading For A Living terms a sign for selling a stock as engine noise, a term which suggests the stock price is not behaving normally and should be looked at closely for a sign of when to sell.
    Elder is however clear that which ever sell signal you choose, you should know in advance of placing a trade, what and when you intend to execute the sale.

    You don’t always have to think long term. Investing/Trading is as much a tool for shaping your present financial situation as it is for forming your future one. Do you want to buy a BMW next year? Do you want to go on a cruise? Wouldn’t a vacation that was paid for with dividends feel nice?

    • @constanciacollene9585
      @constanciacollene9585 Před rokem

      If you are investing in the hope of buying a house, you will almost certainly be looking at longer-term instruments. If you are investing to buy a computer in the new year, you may want short-term investments that pay dividends or some high-yield bonds.

    • @jovangerard5402
      @jovangerard5402 Před rokem

      The caveat here is that you need to pinpoint your goals first. If you want to go on a vacation in a year, you have to figure out the cost of the vacation and then come up with an investing strategy to meet that goal. If you don’t have a set goal, the money that should be going into that investment will doubtless be used for other purposes that seem more pressing at the time.

    I believe this is one of the best videos from Financial Wisdom. A lot of people have trouble knowing when to sell. (Including myself) I've had many positions go from positive to negative. It seems like a simple thing to do. If you would always sell in the green and abide by your stop, (considering profitability rate and RR ratio of course) you're a profitable trader. But for some reason, it just doesn't happen that way and it's because we don't follow our plan or don't have a plan set BEFORE entering the trade. Trimming the position on the way up helps keep profit and reduce huge losses too. HAVE A PLAN AND STICK TO IT!

    Hello, thanks for the great video. I am rather confused though. I have read 'Trading for a living, 'Come into my trading room' and 'The new trading for a living' and my entries are still a mess. He says that if you analyse the weekly chart as the tide, then your daily Force Index gives you the entry signal by dipping below 0. This makes good sense to me. However, in 'The new trading for a living' he also covers his Impulse System, which is what you're not permitted to do system and on its own also makes good sense to me. But when you try and enter a position using Force Index on daily chart, that same day is often not permitted by the Impulse system. Could you please clarify an exact criteria for an entry? Thanks in advance.

    Great production, Gareth, thanks. I'm almost tempted to go off and write an essay comparing and contrasting Dr Elder with Stan Weinstein (e.g. Force index vs. Mansfield relative strength, etc), although both use very similar principles. Out of curiosity, when Elder refers to 13 & 26 EMAs is he using a daily or weekly chart? (Based on your earlier videos, I'm now weekly charts almost exclusively.)
